description
Provides a classification of the physical surface of the land (land cover, e.g., forest, wetland) and the human activities taking place on it (land use, e.g., croplands, built-up). This foundational data is essential for a wide range of applications, including urban planning, natural resource management, and environmental monitoring, as it provides the context for understanding human-environment interactions.
methodology
Uses data generated with an AI model that has been trained on high-resolution, high-frequency optical satellite observations (Sentinel-2) to generate precise, annual land-cover maps at 10m spatial resolution.
validation
The underlying data used by the model has been validated by expert annotators and by comparison with other similar datasets.
